[ Wait.

You're...pregnant. We're having a baby.

There's a brief moment where the world seems to fall out from underneath her, when she awakens only to be faced with words strung together into a statement that she knows the meaning of, yet somehow cannot understand the meaning of. ]


...Huh?

[ —is all she manages to voice. Her eyes have gone wide, any lingering sleepiness in them so thoroughly dispelled by this... new truth that Satoru has so suddenly given her, and her lips quiver as she searches for words, yet none come.

They're having a baby. She's pregnant. How... is he so sure, how does he know, when she hadn't even— oh. Pieces of the puzzle slot together, then, when Sumina considers all of the oddities she's experienced over the last few weeks, and especially so over the last few days. All things that she might have brought up to her husband, but she had considered each in isolation instead of realizing they were all signs pointing to the fact that she's pregnant. They're having a baby! ]


S-Satoru...?

[ Still dumbfounded, all she can do now is search for some kind of sign from him. This... is good, right? This is what they have wanted for so long, and what they have been trying to accomplish, but she needs to know that the joy she feels beginning to burst through her heart isn't hers alone, for how suddenly and nonchalantly he's delivered this news. ]
